      Verdict

      WESTERN HYMN (NAP) made a winning racecourse debut here back in 2013 and returns for the first time since. He has yet to win this year but his placed efforts, notably a second in the Group 3 Brigadier Gerard, is the best form on offer. Berkshire struggled in testing ground at Chantilly last time but won a Listed race at Windsor earlier while Restorer is another Listed winner, though has something to prove over this longer trip on his first start since April. Stablemates Yorkidding and Kiltara are closely matched on latest running in Listed company while Hamelin finished runner-up in last year’s renewal and is preferred to Star Storm.
